asked the Postmaster-General to what extent mails are being carried between London and Scotland by air service; and what steps are being taken to increase the volume of mail so carried.

The carriage of mails by air between London and Scotland is limited to the conveyance of letters and postcards addressed to Glasgow and posted in London up to the Noon/2 p.m. collections from the street posting boxes. This service started on 17th November last; the question of extending its scope is under review.
